As the Sangheili settled on the shield world, Ussa, Sooln, and [[Ernicka the Scar-Maker]] formed a loose triumvirate of leaders to govern the Sangheili of the shield world—the [[Ussans]]. Sooln established a bond with Enduring Bias and often engaged in long conversations with the monitor.<ref name="bc46">'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 46'' (Google Play edition)</ref> During one of these conversations, Enduring Bias revealed the shield world's Disassembler capabilities; the shield world was capable of breaking apart and imitating an explosion, while remaining habitable. Sooln reported her discovery to Ussa while the two were walking together in [[Ussa's Garden]], which was promptly backed up by Bias. While the monitor was demonstrating the Disassembler process through [[holography]], he confirmed that there was a 49% chance that the process would lead to the destruction of all organisms on the world. The two Sangheili hoped that they rest of the [[Ussans]] would not find out, to prevent them from living in fear.<ref name="bc68">'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 68-72'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Sooln had repaired some of the Bias' broken processes, causing Bias to become very loyal to her.<ref name="bc90">'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 90-94'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | As the Sangheili settled on the shield world, Ussa, Sooln, and [[Ernicka the Scar-Maker]] formed a loose triumvirate of leaders to govern the Sangheili of the shield world—the [[Ussans]].

Later, Enduring Bias unintentionally incriminated Sooln and Ussa after a conversation he had with [[Tersa 'Gunok]], [[Salus 'Crolon]], and [['Drem]]. He informed the three that Sooln had helped reprogram some of his failing processes and that he was loyal to anyone that programmed him. After he learned that the [[San'Shyuum]] had connections to the [[Huragok]] from Sooln, Bias stated that he would accept the presence of San'Shyuum on the world, as he believed that they would bring along Huragok to fully repair Bias. 'Crolon and 'Drem jumped to the conclusion that Sooln and Ussa were actually conspiring with the San'Shyuum, and began plotting against him.<ref name="bc90"/> Ultimately, for treason against Ussa, 'Crolon was arrested and 'Drem was executed when he attempted to escape.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 143-146'' (Google Play edition)</ref> The next day, Sooln learned that 'Crolon had escaped and she informed Ussa in his quarters.

Fearing that 'Crolon would bring the coordinates of the shield world to the Covenant, Sooln reluctantly suggested that the Ussans could flee. Ussa considered the possibility, but instead prepared for the possible arrival of a [[Covenant fleet]].<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 155-158'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | Later, Enduring Bias unintentionally incriminated Sooln and Ussa after a conversation he had with [[Tersa 'Gunok]], [[Salus 'Crolon]], and [['Drem]].

When the Covenant fleet did inevitably arrive at the shield world, after capturing 'Crolon and taking the coordinates for the Refuge from ''Clan's Blade'', Ussa personally informed Sooln and told her that he intended to activate the world's Disassembler process. Sooln, Ussa, Bias, and Ernicka later conferred in the [[Strategy Hall]]. They decided to attempt to negotiate with the Covenant before initiating the Disassembler process. Ussa spoke with the [[Mken 'Scre'ah'ben|Prophet of Inner Conviction]], a San'Shyuum he had battled against during the San'Shyuum-Sangheili War. Inner Conviction gave Ussa an offer: if Ussa and Sooln turned themselves in, the rest of the Ussans will be free to live on Sanghelios.
